Description This is a recent project that I just completed in my figure drawing class.
The subject title for our project was "hard at work" and so I chose to use a photograph that I had taken of my boyfriend Tony while he was working hard on an essay.

I am really excited about the things I am learning in my art classes. I am slowly stepping farther into other art mediums and creating a wider range of art forms I am able to experiment with. Usually I work in a 2D style and use a lot of line elements and I am really proud of myself that I am able to pull of a picture like this.

It is 18x24 nupastels (soft pastels)

If anyone has any questions feel free to ask!!!
I am really happy with the end result. It was a GREAT project!

This amazing piece of work made me laugh - for it does have humour -, as well as raising admiration in me for your skill in executing it.

absolutely! Your drawings are SO cuuute! Now I know that a lot of the art teachers dont like anime and stuff but don't let it stop you. Anime is a style of art so you do learn a lot of technique from it. I can see you have nice coloring skills too. We also seem to have a lot in common. Do you listen do a lot of hatsune miku? I saw that it said you were listening to triple baka and one of your pictures is po pi po.

thats so cool! If you ever need any help at DA let me know. Ill help any way I can!

Fred-Weasley In reply to InukamiChan [2009-11-18 00:23:30 +0000 UTC]

(sorry this took so long to respond to) No my major wasnt photography it was drawing and painting but I enjoyed photography there as well.

And as for vocaloids MAN i couldnt tell you which song is my favorite. I think I have more vocaloid songs in my playlist right now than regular music XD.
im actually working on a big hatsune miku picture right now. I hope to have it finished and uploaded by the end of the week :3

This is simply phenominal! The way you've used fleshtones and redish tones to shade and highlight the skin really is pleasing to the eyes and also I really like how everything is incredible smooth and blended in well.
